Long Version: I had been looking at getting into RC cars for awhile and had settled on a brand and model on my own after extensive research. Traxxas Bandit for $189 seemed perfect for me. It was reasonably priced with good standard performance and features. I was looking online but everywhere I saw one, it said "could take up to 10 business days for delivery" and I really wanted it sooner so I started looking around in town. A different store had one and they were nice enough but I didn't know the $189 didn't come with battery/charger and wasn't quite ready to spend the cash. When I WAS ready, I decided to call a Hobby Town instead because the other store was a little dirty and while the employee answered my questions, they weren't very personable and when I thanked them for their time but said I wasn't aware of the full cost and I'd have to postpone my purchase, they just kind of stared off and didn't say anything. Like they were annoyed I didn't spend any money after I took up only approximately 5 minutes of their time. Not the worst customer service but still far from the best. Norm at Hobby Town however was wonderful from the beginning. I perused their site to make sure they had what I wanted and called to confirm. Norm answered with an enthusiastic and upbeat attitude, answered all my questions, reserved the unit behind the counter for me and said "see you later" in a way that seemed he was actually excited to see and help me when I got there. When entering the store it was the same way, happy greeting and warm smile. I explained who I was and again he seemed excited. This made me feel very good about my choice to purchase here instead. Again he answered all my questions, made recommendations when asked for them and was even nice and acknowledged my children when they asked or told him something. We left the store smiling and excited to get my Bandit home and couldn't have been more pleased with our experience. Thanks again Notm, I'm sure I'll be speaking to you again soon!

Really couldn't have better staff there everyone is helpful knowledgeable and friendly. Lucas is a really smart and quick guy knows what I'm after just about every time I come in.

My family decided to drive down to Leavenworth for a fun afternoon (bet Michael Vick has never said…read morethat), and this was our first stop. What a neat store! It has three floors--the second level, which is the main level, has a large collection of Banbao toys, which are like Legos but cheaper. They also had many other cool things like models, marbles, and marshmallow guns (and plenty of other things that don't start with the letter M). The top floor had more toys, such as a wall of Playmobile, some German toys, and some more neat models, including models of Leonardi da Vinci's inventions that you can put together and actually make work. There are also some toddler and preschool level toys, like pretend food and Melissa & Doug puzzles and toys that teach skills like tying shoes. The bottom level is a model train lovers dream. We love looking at model trains but absolutely aren't into making them, but it was really cool to look around and see what a model train enthusiastic world is like. Customer service is great. I think we spoke with the owners, or at least some of the main employees, and they were super nice, showing our shy children some of the toys and letting my kids try them out. It was clear that they really love toys and their customers. We left without buying anything, but we're hoping to come back soon and give them our business!

Sprue Brothers Models is a boutique online hobby shop specializing in plastic models kits…read more(primarily aircraft, armor and naval) and related aftermarket accessories, and tools & supplies. Sprue Brothers Models origioinally started out as an eBay-based business in 1999, then expanded into a full scale webstore in 2003 and have grown steadily ever since. They have a modern warehouse/fulfillment facility located in Liberty (Kansas City), Missouri, USA houses over 75,000 items ready to ship to our customers. You can buy with confidence - search for references about Sprue Brothers in any of the major modeling websites including www.aircraftresourcecenter.com , www.hyperscale.com , www.finescale.com www.modelingmadness.com , www.zone-five.net, www.armorama.com , www.track-link.net , www.missing-lynx.com, www.apagemodels.com, etc. Sprue Brothers prides themselves by providing their customers the ability to reliably order items and receive them quickly! I have had my orders typically ship within one business day (the same day in most cases if order is placed by 2:00pm US Central time) because they actually stock what they list for sale and in the quantities which are shown in real time. What sets Sprue Brothers from the competition is their definition of "In Stock" means that the item is actually in the warehouse (not at a distributors'/suppliers' warehouse) and is ready to immediately shipment to me. I have had excellent service ordering from Sprue Brothers over the years and have taken advantage of their e-mail discounts and new kit announcements. Never had a problem placing many orders through their website. They really cater to the modeling enthusiast. I highly recommend Sprue Brothers from my personal shopping experience to fulfill your modeling needs.
